For many years I have taught beginning and intermediate group classes every spring and fall in Falls Church, Va. Classes with
other instructors have also been offered in guitar and mountain dulcimer. These classes were initiated and organized by the one
and only Keith Young, a longtime folk musician, builder of fine instruments, and friend who helped countless people of all ages
experience the joy of music for themselves. Keith passed away unexpectedly this year, but his kind influence will carry on.
Though group classes are on hold for the time being, we hope to get them up and running again soon. Stay tuned to this page
for further developments.

I occasionally teach other hammered dulcimer group classes and workshops as well and can also arrange to do so upon
request, schedule permitting.

You're a great teacher,
and this has been such a
wonderful experience! Thanks!
